There are a lot of nutjobs running around saying they want Coal back, the President of the United States, for example, despite Coal being more expensive than Solar now.

So, to answer your question in earnest, Fossil Fuel Energy Companies and their bought-and-paid elected officials.


Those aren't people thst want less energy for more money, those are people that want to sell less energy for more money.

The people that want less energy for more (immediate) money are the people that want external costs priced into retail energy prices, but that's just because they don't want environmental damage to be treated as a non-cost.


Perhaps people who like good air quality


Probably everyone born in the next 100 years who will be subject to the externalities we currently allow.
